Colegio Bolivar Enters a New Era in Parent/Teacher Conferences.
Denby, James
Phi Delta Kappan, v77 n5 p378-79 Jan 1996
A primary school in Cali, Colombia, has implemented major changes intended to give students a more active role in their education. Encouraged by new government guidelines, teachers banished letter grades and began to assess students on mastery of curriculum objectives. During parent-teacher conferences, children speak confidently about their academic strengths and weaknesses. (MLH)
